Ladies and gents,

I'm returning to the G5X II world.

rinse and repeat...

missing out on the goodness of m6II +32 + 11-22 + PL5

No, I should’ve never left; Lightroom having true color match support changes things in all fairness. I couldn’t get the colors I wanted from the G5x II before, now I can, without an M. I do have to pony up for LR annually though, I’m fine with that caveat. You get what you pay for often in life; it’s a fair trade for convenience and results at a cost.

I tried LR last night on my old M6II RAWs from Sigmas, that unfortunately isn’t such a happy ending; LRs M6II match is the same as the one I adapted from the M50; not a true match. Metering / exposure from Sigmas is a mess still in LR even though I’m getting more true to Canon colors, it’s a hassle to have to play with exposure significantly to get desired results.

I am giving the M thought as a utility camera, think meets my non-standard shooting like macro work, landscape, telephoto shooting which the G5x II doesn’t do as good of a job at, but, the R fills this gap too. Haven’t decided yet. No rush either. G5x II arrives later this week and I plan to take it one step at a time.

all the way from Canada- hope you get a good one

The last one I had was, it was fine.

But, yes, so do I.

I’d like to have the next version but they probably will not make it
